Molly Johnston joins the show to discuss some of the nuances around elective egg freezing. Molly is a fourth year PhD candidate at Monash University in Melbourne. Her PhD has looked into policies (legislation and day-to-day management in IVF clinics) governing egg freezing (particularly in Victoria, Australia). Molly has looked into uptake trends, social attitudes towards access to and funding for egg freezing, and has used this evidence to inform a critical review of egg freezing policies.
In this episode, Molly & Hannah chat about:🎙 why elective egg freezing is getting more attention in recent years🎙 how it is perceived by the community🎙 what the uptake trends are in Australia🎙 some of the policies and laws in place that govern use, donation, research and discarding of eggs🎙 accessibility and funding
